A New Design To Share With You

Today has been a pretty productive day!  I got some things finished and thought I'd share with you all my new little mouse design.  In case you haven't figured it out already, I LOVE RIBBON!!!  I buy ribbon all the time whenever I go to any craft or fabric store.  So I have a good stash.  Many times I buy it and it just languishes around getting all snarled and tangled up.  But today I actually sorted and organized it all.  I bought the "vine" ribbon last year.  A whole spool of it.  I had to have the moment I spotted it at a little boutique.  I think I knew then what I wanted to try to use it for but it did sit around for months until I got around to it.:)  I had created a long time ago two little bunnies on a wood base.  A girl bunny sat on a swing and a boy bunny stood behind pushing her.  It was really cute.  I wanted to try to recreate it but, lol, there just wasn't enough room on this base for both.  And I made her a mouse...because, the bunny ears were too tall, lol.:)  The swing actually rocks if you give her a gentle push.

  1. I don't know how it's possible for your little critters to get even cuter but this one has! Unbearably sweet!
